The United States and India: A Shared Vision for 2020 and Beyond

An address by U.S. Secretary of State, The Honorable John F. Kerry

Monday, July 28, 2014, 9:30 am ET - 10:30 am ET

Please join the Center for American Progress as we launch India: 2020, a new initiative focused on elevating the foreign policy debates in South Asia by looking at short- and long-term policy priorities and analyzing ways to realize the full potential of the relationship.

U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry will deliver the keynote address at this launch. His speech will discuss the importance of the U.S.-India bilateral relationship to U.S. foreign policy and the opportunities for a strengthened partnership with India in the coming years.

India is proving to be an emerging powerhouse regionally and globally after decades of impressive economic growth and military modernization, and with a new government in New Delhi, it is clearly time to chart a new and ambitious course for the U.S.-India partnership. By launching India: 2020, the Center for American Progress will set the stage to help India and the United States work toward enhancing peace and economic prosperity across Asia and moving global governance institutions beyond their current structures into the 21st century.

This event is closed to RSVPs. Please view the event live stream.

Welcome:

Vikram Singh, Vice President, National Security and International Policy, Center for American Progress
